We received the issue of Session number four a bit late but decided to show you the mag anyway. It's got a Kevin Kiraly interview and also a six page report on the Simpel Session. Session travels to South Africa to check the scene over there, covers a few events down under (BMX Games/
Cam White's Hillside jam) and also the
Heath Pinter St. Patrick's day jam.
Brandon Dosch goes Northshore at Camp Woodward on the contents page (sequence of a tailwhip drop) and
Justin Barnes gets creative with a school bench/table on the Staff spread. But there is also news, a B-day party report (it gets interesting when the B-day boys are
Brian Blyther and
Robert Castillo and they're bringing out the quarterpipe and jump ramp for a show with
Eddie Fiola, Ben Snowden and
The Lord (Voelker). #4 reports on a BMX jam in Skate City, Cesar and Slayer's jam in Australia,
Troy Merkle's getaway, Chicagoland gets checked and there was a Los Angeles street jam that
Chris and
Che visited for Session mag.
If you would skip 5 years of watching any BMX riding and you show up at a contest you will notice how things have changed (trick-wise). Session uses 5 pages to give respect to those who are pusing the envelop.
Stop the Tailwhips? Session shows you how to do them on page 82. There ain't no stopping the tailwhip Catfish! Scott McMenamin gets a Bio, Ricardo Laguna gets a Bike Check, Brandon Dosch wasted some time for page 86 and of course there are a lot of products shown. 8 pages of wall paper wrap up the issue. A lot of content just because, unlike other mags, Session does not have 40% of ads in it.
